Let's talk about full of nonsense, shall we? Nonsense being what your argument is.

resulting in the potential to produce neurotoxicity
Please note the word "potential" in that sentence - in other words, "we think it might be possible, but we don't know".

If your such an expert how come I never see your name on any papers, in expert groups like SAE etc ??
Well since you don't know what my name is, how do you know you haven't seen my name on any papers? Are you sure you aren't on some sort of mind-altering substance?

Pyrolised synthetic turbine oil IS toxic
Prove it.

Never Trust A Manage

lomapaseo is right, your list is largely supposition.

But just for some sunday fun, let's look at a few of your "facts" -

Crews report a selection of neurological effects that have only occured following repeated exposure to contaminated air - FACT.
You don't know what caused the neurological effects in those crews - the link has yet to be established scientifically.

Operating crews have become incapacitated during a contaminated air event - FACT.
No, they suffered "some degree of incapacitation". If they had been incapacitated, everybody would be dead.

Sampling of the air supply by BRE for the CAA was NOT done during a reported contaminated air event and therefore only sampled air during non contaminated air events. BRE stated: '“The intentions of the study was not to monitor the air quality during any ‘unusual circumstances’ rather emphasis being on obtaining data from scheduled flights.” Therefore the air during a contaminated air event is unkown - FACT.
Sampling was carried out on an aircraft that had just had a fumes event, and had not been touched between the two flights (with respect to the air con system). Other than monitor every flight, there is no better way to carry out research. By the way, this "fact" compromises your previous "facts".

BALPA conference in 2005 concluded crews are sick long term - FACT.
Well they would, wouldn't they, they are a pilots union which smells massive payouts, under significant pressure from their major customer (BA pilots).

The rest of your "facts" come under the heading of "so what?"
